Does anyone know anything about Pro-lite horse trailers? Is the company that manufactured these horse trailers still in business? Are they well made horse trailers?

I have a two-horse Pro-lite trailer straight load that my horses really liked. I have some horses that don't like to load and the ramp took quite a beating and I had it rebuilt. The trailer was very cool and comfortable in the hot weather. I bought a steel bumper pull slant with a dressing room and no ramp since I needed extra room for camping and traveling. None of my horses like riding in the slant as well, I think because the noise of the road bothers them. The Pro-lite was very quiet. My main horse that loaded in the Pro-lite by pointing him in the general direction of the trailer has to be persuaded to load in the slant, and he doesn't eat very well. He has never relaxed as well as he did in the Pro-lite, but he has adjusted. The trailer is reinforced fiberglass with aluminum plank flooring, and is built very well. I didn't sell this trailer since I had some horses that didn't want to load in the slant though all of them will load in the slant now. I need to sell it; I just haven't taken the time to advertise it. I do feel better about pulling the steel trailer, though, as it would take an impact better than the Pro-lite if I got into an accident. I looked at the Brenderup trailers before I bought the used Pro-lite and I liked the Pro-lite better, though it is a heavier trailer.
